Random Question Thread XXII: You Know the Deal

3xDD, BRD, WHM, THF enough for Kirin?

I dual boxed Kirin, MNK/WAR + WHM/RDM. Had to use Hundred Fists. You should be fine though.

Counterstance?

[Mojo]

No counterstance

What would be the best limbus zone to target as a solo NIN? I'm just trying to get enough coins for a Boxer's Mantle, and I can't convince any of my LS members to team up with me (or if they are interested, they're always busy with other stuff).

NE Apollyon should give you a lot of coins

Assuming Timarli Dastanas, Goading, War AF3+2 legs and War AF3+2 Feet (21% haste), what should the other slots looks like for a generic TP set for war. It's a mule, but has brutal and Atheling mantle already in inventory and CoP complete if Rajas is useful. I would want to use the same set for all weapons, so not looking for a particular x-hit set, more of a generic capped haste and other applicable melee stats. Particularly unsure of what to use in body slot, assuming I use some sort of haste piece in Head.

So I made a theoretical near optimal (haven't fully mathed it out but looks like best stuff) build for thermal pulse... as a taru with a couple of int merits and setting spells for it it would put me at 116 vit 109 int and 67 MAB /rdm outside with no buffs on

So with both fire atmas ultimate vulcan staff and say +60 to all stats from cruor buffs on a mob with 70int should do about 5.1k dmg. Throw in sound blast and enervation and get it to 5.7k. Far from near perfect whisker builds but should still be able to 1 shot most things.

That being said getting the atmas for CW and making an ok build that does just as much might be a tad faster than making a perfect thermal build

Edit: totally forget mori. Should bump it to like 6.2k.

Edit 2: I think I was being indecesive about body and ended up just forgetting one lol. Probably do morri though so probably another hundred or 2. Almost want to go test this out now lol

Awesome info, and thanks for the screenshot. Nice to know it's possible. My gear is far from optimal, and I forgot about enervation, so I was only cranking out ~3k's on the shrooms in konschtat. Not great, but good enough to fart around with.

Bought my one Lunar Abyssite from NPC a while back. Just got back into getting atmas (at the time only had GH) now at 11+ and didn't realize you couldn't just buy them from npc

So what's the requirements/quests that open up the other two Atma slots?

[Fereydoon]

You get one Lunar from 1/9 zone bosses, and the last from 7/9 zone bosses.

And you can only buy certain atmas from the NPC, not all of them. Wiki the Atma page for a full list of acquisition. Most of the ones you'll want come from NMs. Certain ones that are very good come from buyable npc. The one for completing ASA comes to mind.

What's the easiest Route to take to pop 6th Floor Porrogo in ZR(like which Porrogos should I try to pop and kill)?

Notes: I don't care about the drops (at this time) from 3rd floor Madame or 5th floor Madame, so killing South 5F Madame so I spend less time cell farming is an option.

Thanks.

Jobs: RDM, MNK, THF(2boxxed for TH only)

[Mercilessturtle]

Second floor do slot and socket. Kill a frog on 3rd and 5th floors. Do the north side to get some drops, getting 3 people fully unlocked is really easy.

Grauberg Lettuce....I find it hard to believe the only source is saplings in Grauberg S...no gardening recipes for this?

[barber2006]

xarc is getting mega crowded. Any good farming spots in windy for coins? And can I 2box the TE there?

[TybudX]

This will probably get ignored again, but here goes. Does anybody with supreme patience want to PM me and walk me through how to set up spellcast and how to use it for duo/tri-boxing? I've tried using it before but it's all moon speak to me. The last time I tried I was going by this guide: https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Byrth%27s_Dualboxing_Guide. I couldn't even get it to fire off the Cure IV macro properly. I recently consolidated my playing onto one computer, and proceeded to wipe to dumbshit because I'm trying to alt-tab through screens in order to do stuff. A lot of the time I am stuck watching my DDs with 100+ TP or meleeing in pdt/mdt gear while I do stuff on WHM. It's slow as shit trying to do stuff this way. I must lern2spellcast. Any help would be appreciated.

What was the tag for targetting an ally's mob? <bt> only works if it's red, not purple-red'ish.

I think his guide might be outdated. My friend recently upgraded to Multiboxer + FFXIUtilis + Sandbox and says her dualboxing is much easier.

Everything worked out great except 1 problem, no Spissatus cells, had to port up from 4th floor with all 3 of us missing just spissatus. I chose north route as you suggested. Where should I get Spiss cells in the future?

[NynJa]

Been well over a year, but iirc Spiss is MP...which should drop from the 3f frog?


When SE added AF3+2 items to the old NM's (voyage shit on LTP nm's for example), does grellow affect these, or just TH?

[GeneyusTitan]

On 3rd floor you have to farm them from south, the north route drops no cells. The frog on 3rd will drop 5 hp and mp.

[Cairthenn]

Don't the third floor Mamools drop both MP and HP?

Edit: Beaten, but yeah.
